What Manchester United's Paul Pogba said in private conversation with Leeds player at Elland Road
30.04.2022 - 21:49 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Paul Pogba was surprised at the atmosphere at Elland Road when Manchester United played Leeds this season.
Pogba started as United beat Leeds 4-2 in February. United were two goals ahead in that match thanks to strikes from Harry Maguire and Bruno Fernandes, but the hosts came out fighting in the second half to draw level shortly after the break.
United soon displayed some uncharacteristic fight - resilience has been mostly absent this season - after that setback to score another two goals to notch the three points. United's hopes of securing Champions League football were alive back then.

Jack Harrison came through United's academy with Scott McTominay and Marcus Rashford and he played in that match. Harrison left United's academy aged 14 and he's now revealed a private conversation that took place during the clash with his former club two months ago.
The Leeds forward, speaking ahead of this weekend, revealed he spoke to Pogba, who was surprised at the atmosphere.
“Against Man United at home this year, Paul Pogba looked at me," Harrison told The Times. "He was looking around, going, ‘wow, this is incredible! Is it like this for every game?!’ I said, ‘No, it’s a special occasion, just for you!’
"Every week they are amazing. They’re super loud at home and travelling as well, we always have so many fans travelling, it’s incredible to have that fanbase."
United are Leeds' historic rivals and that could complicate any potential deal for Kalvin Phillips this summer.
